Back-to-school time brings with it a slew of various deals and offers from brands, and T-Mobile offered a free tablet to subscribers as a way to get students ready for classes. Offered one week earlier to existing T-Mobile subscribers, the promo consisted of allowing them to get an Alcatel OneTouch PIXI 7 tablet for $0 with the activation of a data plan.
The entry-level tablet is a great option for students who want the option to watch videos, play games and perhaps even utilize apps for study purposes. The device features 1GB of RAM, 8GB of storage and features front and rear-facing cameras to boot.
The promotion from T-Mobile was run until the brand ran out of stock with the free tablet retailing regularly for about $168.
